Aj, you've never had a car long enough to fix something if it had a problem!

My oil lamp isn't even coming except for when it first starts which is normal anways. me, josh, corey, chris, and rob all checked it on sunday and it showed that there was plenty on the dipstick and now it is showing nothing at all. my car is really starting to piss me off.

The sensor only turns the oil light on when the pressure is below 4psi. Pretty stupid IMO. In my y8 before it started knocking it had well under 1/2q when i drained it out and the oil light never came on.

pretty stupid to let your car run that low on oil. im 98% its a head gasket. on hondas that seems to be the only place that would leak oil into your coolant. gm v6s have a bad time with lower intake gaskets that cause the same issue, but hondas dont work the same. just do the leak down test before you rip your water pump out, its well worth the time.
